The methods/tools employed are&nbsp; diverse and are constantly evolving. Communities are created using various support where participants are interacting with each other. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://herve-foc.blogspot.com/2009/08/week-3-4.html">Facilitating, moderating, or teaching</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">The art of facilitating can be compared to oiling the cogs in order for a meeting to work better. A facilitator does not get involved into the topic. He/she need to be able to&nbsp; show diplomacy and able to summarise the participants idea. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">A moderator will ensure that a discussion, a meeting, posting in a discussion forum stay within pre-agreed&nbsp; boundaries.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">A teacher will attempt to infuse ideas, knowledge and concepts into his student. The original idea of teaching is a one way transfer of knowledge, but&nbsp; more and more educators use a range of strategies including facilitating and moderating to help the students to gain the knowledge required.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://herve-foc.blogspot.com/2009/10/on-line-forum.html">Discussion forums</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">A discussion forum allows for a fast interaction between participants. As they can easily get impulsive, discussions can get out of hand and discussion forum need a moderator.&nbsp; As found by interviewing moderators on a discussion group, there is always a time when it is necessary for the moderator to step in. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://herve-foc.blogspot.com/2009/10/looking-for-online-community-blog.html"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-weight: bold;">Blog networks</span></a><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> (second posting </span><a href="http://herve-foc.blogspot.com/2009/10/blogs-forums-twitter-and-facilitation.html"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">here</span></a><span style="font-family: Calibri;">)</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">Blogs are very useful for in depth reflection.&nbsp; Communities of blogs are created when&nbsp; a group of people with&nbsp; a common interest cross reference their posting with each other's blogs, comment on each other's blog. It hasn't got the immediacy of a discussion forum, but still allows replies to postings and therefore dialogue is&nbsp; taking place.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold; margin: 0in;">Wiki collaborators<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">The wiki interface is really interesting to support a course; all the information are grouped in a central location and the participants are able to comment, discuss, and edit&nbsp; the content. The only draw back is that the interface is not yet as user friendly for editing as for other interacting medium. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://herve-foc.blogspot.com/2009/10/looking-for-online-community-virtual.html">Virtual Worlds</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">One of my biggest regrets on the course is to have missed Sarah's guided visit of an area of second&nbsp; life dedicated to learning.&nbsp; I have visited several areas, but the interaction was missing and I have yet to realise what the full potential use of second life in an educational concept might be.&nbsp; From what I could gather, it must be the most demanding media to use in term of skills for the educators. The results probably match the effort required to interact. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">In First Life it would be difficult for an educational establishment to make extensive use of this type of support, as the bandwidth per user requirements are demanding. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">The <a href="http://www.ascilite.org.au/conferences/auckland09/?m=Programme&amp;s=Keynotes">Keynote address</a> from Dr Scott Diener at <a href="http://www.ascilite.org.au/conferences/auckland09/">Ascilite 09</a> got me thinking again about&nbsp; the potential of virtual worlds. The examples he gave to the audience challenged my beliefs and&nbsp; I will certainly look again at that support in the near future. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://herve-foc.blogspot.com/2009/10/looking-for-online-community-social.html"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Social networking platforms</span></a><span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span>(and <a href="http://herve-foc.blogspot.com/2009/11/problem-with-social-networking.html">here</a>)<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I can see the potential of the social learning platform, but not in my present work. I still consider them as dangerous if used by careless users.&nbsp; From what I have been observing of my students, they are not by in large into practising "safe web", even after explaining the potential dangers at the beginning of my network security course. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">May be staying apart from the main SNS would make it safer, as the smaller player in the domain do not seem to be&nbsp; as targeted by the "baddies".&nbsp; I enjoyed the discussion in Ning, set up by Debra. However I still think that we can have similar functions in Google group or Yahoo group. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold; margin: 0in;">Reflecting on the different kinds of online communities.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">Different kind of online communities are using different platforms for different purposes. They acquires an identity over time, based on the personality of the facilitator or moderator and the most frequent participants. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">The type of platform used&nbsp; will vary according to the purpose the group is trying to achieve. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">Online communities allows people to get to know each other from the inside out in contrast from the outside in. (Thanks to <a href="http://publish.edu.uwo.ca/john.barnett/faculty/">John Barnett</a> I met today for the analogy). This explains why to physically meet someone in the flesh after working with them on line feels rather different.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://herve-foc.blogspot.com/2009/11/using-webex-on-line-conference-tool.html"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Facilitate an event for the course mini conference</span></a><span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span>(and<a href="http://herve-foc.blogspot.com/2009/12/on-line-event.html"> here</a>)<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">The event I facilitated was a challenge in term of having to find a speaker.

The only&nbsp; problem was to be able to find the time to fit them in. It was interesting to see that most of the problems we encountered as a group were linked to to technical issues. This is probably because we were not too familiar with the platforms we were using and the type of situation encountered. There is only so much preparation you can do, and nothing replaces experience.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><object height="344" style="clear: right; float: right;" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/PN2HAroA12w&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/PN2HAroA12w&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>As&nbsp; you&nbsp; have probably&nbsp; already noticed, there are discrepancies between my previous postings and the summary from today. I have done further reading and thinking about the various topics approached this semester and it is still a work in progress. I suspect it will be the case for a long time. I am still half way through… <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Twitter-Dummies-Laura-Fitton/dp/0470479914">Twitter for dummies</a>, borrowed from my local library. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">Congratulations to Rachel for being nominated for <span style="color: black;">the </span><a href="http://edublogawards.com/">2009 Edublog Awards</a>.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">It was nice to be able to meet with <a href="http://facilitationonlinekrishan.blogspot.com/">Krishan</a> and <a href="http://roscelifacilitatingonlinecommunities.blogspot.com/">Rosceli</a> last week (I missed <a href="http://meenaadhikari.blogspot.com/">Meena</a> by 10 minutes).&nbsp; Although we have the same employer, we are working on different sites. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I have discovered the full potential of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_OneNote">MS Office One notes</a>, a powerful "workpad" which has allowed me to keep a record of my thoughts and notes on all the topics throughout this course.I would prefer to use an Open source software, but could not find what I exactly needed. Let me know if there is one I have missed!<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold; margin: 0in;">Feed back on the course<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">This course was thoroughly enjoyable, challenging in term of content and workload, and never boring.&nbsp; It has already influenced the way I work and I have started to experiment this semester with my students.&nbsp; This was not necessarily about concepts new to me, but ideas which I had toyed with in my mind in the past but I never implemented. I have also started this semester a Personal Learning Network. As probably for other participants, I did find it difficult to stay on top of the work at time due to a heavy workload. I kept on lurking on most blogs but did not always find the time to post answers. I did find all the mini conference events I was able to attend interesting in term of content and management. As they were all recorded,&nbsp; I am still catching up with them.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">To my surprise I did find it difficult to participate into the web conferencing sessions and often found myself in the position of a lurker. English is my third language but this does not usually stop me from participating in F2F situations (essential for my job!). It has to be something about the lack of visual clues. Who fancy studying this as a research topic?<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">The <a href="http://sarahmargaretstewart.blogspot.com/">course facilitator</a> did a great job, and I would certainly recommend <a href="http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Facilitating_Online">this course</a> to colleagues.

I think that it is not an issue with the recording itself, but probably because of my location behind GFO (Great Firewall of Otara). </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">The event was promoted through the <a href="http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Facilitating_Online/course_mini_conference">Wiki</a>, <a href="http://roscelifacilitatingonlinecommunities.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html">Rosceli's Blog</a> and posting in the Google group. The information was adequate. I feel that may be a reminder to the event sent the previous day might have attracted a few more people on the day. It is not always possible to remember everything that is going on when you are very busy. However I remember seeing a reasonable number of people being present. </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">Do you feel is it better to advertise in parallel on several media (same information on all platforms) , or to have a main repository for the information then putting shortcut towards it? I have used the first method as s it limits the number of clicks someone has to do to access the information. This is a principle of web design I can remember, but does it work in this situation?</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">Rosceli had a great presenter in <a href="http://www.wikieducator.org/User:Bronwynh">Bronwyn</a>, which really helps to be able to focus on the job of facilitating the event. The event went on smoothly from beginning to the end, and the topic was really interesting. There might have been disruption taking place, but if this was the case the facilitator was right on top of it and I did not notice it.&nbsp; </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">All participants were familiar with the Elluminate environment, and I do not think that anyone had any technical difficulties.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">After the introduction to the session was made, the facilitator remained neutral throughout and did a round up at the end.&nbsp; It felt very professional all through the session. </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">The link towards the recording was provided by <a href="http://sarahmargaretstewart.blogspot.com/">Sarah</a> the next day. </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">&nbsp;It would have been nice to have had it appearing in the Wiki as well to centralise all the information together.

Or was it something else? Here we are, I am falling in the topic discussed Monday during Rosceli's event about being honest in reflective practises…<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">To prepare for the event, I set up an extra revision session with a class of student earlier in the semester. It was obviously not something that I could facilitate, but I could at least gain experience using online conference tools. I used DimDim in that occasion.<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">-I tried Elluminate with Eric. We had problems and decided to move to Webex. We played with it for a while. I have been using Webex since aprox. 2005, and never had any problem with it. This contributed to being too self confident with the technical side.<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">-We agreed on the details of the event.<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">-I advertised the event on the Wiki, the blog, sending invitation and reminders,&nbsp; updating the information as it became available. I made sure that the Wiki and the blog were synchronised.<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">-I read all the info available about hosting a remote session I could find on various blogs, websites….<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">On the day, <br /></div><ul style="direction: ltr; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0.375in; margin-top: 0in; unicode-bidi: embed;" type="disc"><li style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">&nbsp;I had my script ready for multiple situations on my desk .</span></li><li style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">I was using my trusted headset, used for numerous events during the last year. </span></li><li style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">I had an experienced speaker</span></li></ul><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">What could possibly go wrong?<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">Well, my system did not pick up my head set, even after logging out and back. Eric also met the same problem at first.<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">I ended up as participant instead of host; Heather became a host instead.<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2K84LJepf_k/SxXsYmDjOsI/AAAAAAAAAEo/-tsQmyUnIL0/s1600-h/broken+computer.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2K84LJepf_k/SxXsYmDjOsI/AAAAAAAAAEo/-tsQmyUnIL0/s320/broken+computer.jpeg" /></a>It was entertaining to say the least to try fixing technical problem as well as hosting the session. <br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">I should have planned for such difficulties, and not only for complete meltdown.&nbsp; <br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">We could have chosen the Webex version using&nbsp; the phone to carry the voice. I rejected that option at the time as I find it disruptive to have to hold a phone and at the same time trying to type or interact with the computer.&nbsp; It works fine if you can use a headset or a speaker phone.<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">I used texting as much as I could, but it became difficult as I was not at first picking up any sound from the speakers or headphones. Restarting the laptop was not an option because this would have taken&nbsp; at least 10 minutes to get back onto the network. <br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">In hindsight, I should have use my old PC at home which could have restarted much quicker, not the laptop with all the bells and whistles .<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">Eric was great,&nbsp; and I did manage towards the middle of the session to get the left speaker&nbsp; on the laptop working feebly. I thing that the microphone also started to work&nbsp; at that stage.<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2K84LJepf_k/SxXs8vINgPI/AAAAAAAAAEw/ZLbtIzHT22k/s1600-h/Stressed.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2K84LJepf_k/SxXs8vINgPI/AAAAAAAAAEw/ZLbtIzHT22k/s200/Stressed.jpeg" /></a>If anyone had been filming me at the time, it would have gone viral on YouTube by now. I was standing with my left hear on the laptop speaker, trying to understand what was happening. I was at the same time waving people getting in my busy shared office to keep quiet. Not everyone was getting the message.&nbsp; I was also trying to get clues from the screen and typing text messages. I am sure I could start a new form of yoga using&nbsp; laptops.&nbsp; You should try it, it is good exercise for the neck and eyes.&nbsp; I must admit that I could not see the funny side at the time.<br /><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">I had good feedback from several participants in the course, so from their point of view,&nbsp; things must have gone smoothly.&nbsp; I was also pleasantly surprised by the recording. <br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">I did try to facilitate the event, asking question when I sort of guessed it was relevant (bear in mind ear on the laptop, mouth towards the mic, eyes towards the screen as much as possible).<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in 0in 0in 0.375in;">I only had the time to listen to the recording&nbsp; and update my learning journal today.

I had no time to read the blog entry beforehand and was caught unprepared for the topic, as it probably came across.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I am sure that Social Networking Platforms , which I will call <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">SNP in this post, can be a wonderful tool to interact with otherpeople and communities. However I think this is a risky environment. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">Are the rewards really worth the risks?<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">There are several aspects to the problem: <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">1. your public profile can be used, with other elements of publicly available information for the purpose of ID theft. &nbsp;You could minimise you profile, but SNPs have been hacked in the past and data stolen. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">2. The gadgets made available in these site can be used by hackers to steel your data and/or&nbsp; take over your account. I remember reading on the BCS website the testimony of a journalist who had a lot of damage done to his reputation after this happened to him. The company running the SNP was extremely unresponsive and he had to take legal action. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">3. There has been cases of computers infected with malware (trojan- keyloggers) when their owner were visiting SNP and looking at other profiles. This is not specific to SNPs and can happen any number of ways (rogue email attachment and infected/hacked web sites being the main causes). <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">4. As for email, social engineering can be used to extract information from you, which can put you in situation 1 or 2. Never trust anyone you do not know on line. If you know them, check they are really who they pretend to be...<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">If you feel that you have to use a SNP I would advise you not to enter real details into them, check the site track record for security (Google), and at the very minimum have a computer with a good antivirus and firewall up-to-date. This would not protect against zero day attacks, only against known problems. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">You can find further info on: <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/08/08/AR2008080803671.html">Hackers' Latest Target: Social Networking Sites</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Hidden-Dangers-of-Facebook-and-MySpace&amp;id=2587255">The Hidden Dangers of Facebook and MySpace</a><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://www.tv3.co.nz/TVOnDemand/tabid/742/Default.aspx?articleID=43846">The dangers of Facebook</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://www.lep.co.uk/features/The-dangers-of-Facebook.4271997.jp">The dangers of Facebook</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">&nbsp;<a href="http://www.bcs.org/server.php?show=conWebDoc.16677">Social sites top security targets</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://www.bcs.org/server.php?show=conBlogPost.267">Social Networking versus Personal Privacy</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://www.bcs.org/server.php?show=conWebDoc.26160">Fraudsters 'targeting social networking sites'</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://www.bcs.org/server.php?show=conWebDoc.10436">Parents warned over ID theft from social networking</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://webupon.com/web-talk/myspace-and-facebook-the-dangers-of-social-networking/">Myspace and Facebook: the Dangers of Social Networking</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://www.bcs.org/server.php?Module%5BiBasicSearch1%5D%5Bsearch%5D=social+networking&amp;change=SearchDisplay&amp;x=0&amp;y=0&amp;page=13">MySpace hit by virus</a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I have found <a href="http://www.digizen.org/socialnetworking/">Young People and Social Networking Services</a> interesting, but think that the security part of it lack depth.

If I had to use SNP, I would start by a compulsory session and test on how to minimise the risks associated with them. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I am more comfortable with a closed environment where you can control the membership of the group and moderate the content. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">Course miniconference: I have been left high and dry with no speaker, and no ideas.

As I have completely forgotten what my avatar was, I had to create a new one. I went to the place recommended by <a href="http://sarahmargaretstewart.blogspot.com/">Sarah</a>, getting used to the interface again. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the bandwidth requirements are a lot less than&nbsp; in past. I was able to get away with a 256/128K link, but there were no-one to interact with at the time. <br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">However, a teaching institution having several users using SL at the same time would&nbsp; have issues with the bandwidth used. I can see SL becoming a source of frustration in this situation.<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">In the <a href="http://www.simteach.com/wiki/index.php?title=Second_Life_Grad_Student_Colony">second Life Grad Student Colony page</a>,&nbsp; part of a sentence sent me warning messages: … since many of us spend way too much time in SL and not nearly enough time actually studying,… <br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">These kind of environment can suck the life out of you if you are not careful!<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">Wikipedia, referring to <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/07/education/edlife/07innovation.html">an interesting article from Christine&nbsp; Lagorio in the NY Times</a> mentions that Instructors and researchers in Second Life favour it because it is more personal than traditional distance learning.&nbsp; The article mentions that at the time of writing in 2007 there were numerous institutions using SL. Looking for more recent information,&nbsp; I was expecting to find more info on <a href="http://www.eduserv.org.uk/research/studies/slsnapshots">Eduserve</a>, as the l<a href="http://virtualworldwatch.net/2009/06/22/early-summer-2009-snapshot/">atest report</a> about the use of SL is dated from June 2009. The information did not convinced me that the use of SL is developing at least for the UK. <br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I have tried to create a group in SL. This would have cost me SL$100. This surely cannot help to create communities. I suppose you could create a teaching institution from scratch on SL, without the need for a physical location, but this would come at a cost.<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">My approach to new Learning technologies is "How can this help me to improve on what I am doing ".&nbsp; At the present time, I cannot see how SL would help me. I probably lack of experience in using the environment and would have liked to be able to see a demonstration of group interaction in SL.&nbsp; I can&nbsp; see that it would help it the case of <a href="http://www.technologyreview.com/Infotech/18510/?a=f">language learning</a>. It must also be helpful&nbsp; for other non-technical subject otherwise I dare assuming that it would not be used for educational purposes. <br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I have no doubt that communities exist in SL, as in everywhere people interact. The kind of interactions happening there would mean that facilitation would be similar to in-person meeting facilitation. One of the source of information mentions that you should limit the open questions asked, to avoid a meeting becoming chaotic.<br /></div>Hervéhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03827962727440592047noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5096423633327408543.post-58752977991591648242009-10-21T22:14:00.000+13:002009-10-22T09:07:13.701+13:00Using WiZiQ<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">My work network blocked me from accessing WiZiQ with the r<a href="http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Facilitating_Online/Participants">est of the group</a> last week. So following <a href="http://sarahmargaretstewart.blogspot.com/">Sarah's</a>&nbsp;suggestion, I did organise another meeting which took place tonight.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">Already I was not not impressed from the start, as the registration process requested me to hand over a lot of personal information, unlike for DimDim. This rang alarm bells:&nbsp; at best&nbsp;I am at risk to be spammed heavily .At worse my data could be stolen from their database for ID theft purpose. Mind you, apart from the email address, there is nothing to force you to tell the truth…<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://catherines-learning-journal.blogspot.com/">Catherine</a>&nbsp; and <a href="http://focheather.blogspot.com/">Heather</a>&nbsp; attended the meeting at different times.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I did find the interface&nbsp; itself nice and simple. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">As the meeting coordinator, you control the ability for the participants to speak on interact with the white board.&nbsp; It would be better to have a system such as Elluminate where the participant can take turn to speak by clicking a button, without having the coordinator&nbsp; identifying first who wants to talk, then click on a button.<br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2K84LJepf_k/St7RpVb0o8I/AAAAAAAAAEY/kbuyr0XONQ8/s1600-h/wiziq.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_2K84LJepf_k/St7RpVb0o8I/AAAAAAAAAEY/kbuyr0XONQ8/s400/wiziq.JPG" /></a><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">The problem with enabling the speech permanently&nbsp; (full duplex) is that you can end up with 2 people talking at the same time, as the delay for the speech to arrive to destination was about two seconds. This created a problem with two participants. What would happen with 10 or 20? Chaos!<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I have tried to upload documents from the PC to the whiteboard with limited success. I was able to&nbsp; load one PDF file, one PowerPoint file, one Excel file . A few files got stuck at 50% upload. The Excel file&nbsp; was only displaying the print area, and you could not navigate between the sheets. The .pps file suddenly appeared after I had lost all hope of seeing it. The delay from to time between the system indicated that the file was loaded and its appearance on screen was of about two or three minutes. This&nbsp; did not seem to have anything to do with my system or&nbsp; my internet connection.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">&nbsp;The only way to share videos seems to be through You Tube. I also had the option to use as source the Camptasia plugin (?), but this came to nothing at the end. I attempted to upload video files directly. WiZiQ only seemed to be able to&nbsp; only identify the .swf video file on my laptop, but any attempt to load the files came to nothing.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">It does not appear to be any facilities for desktop sharing. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">You can annotate&nbsp; the uploaded documents, but when attempting to erase the annotations, the text on the document disappeared.&nbsp; This is not an issue if you are aware of it. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">The bandwidth used was acceptable on my modest DSL line, but it looks like a bit more than DimDim or Webex.<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I am having another go at DimDim on Monday with some of my students (I know:&nbsp; labour day - I must be stupid!), and will feed back on the experience. <br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">So to summarise my experience, the interface is nice and easy to use,&nbsp; but:<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">- delays gets in the way of communication and file sharing<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">-limited video sharing facilities<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">-no desktop sharing facilities<br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">-concerns about privacy<br /></div>Hervéhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03827962727440592047noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5096423633327408543.post-27582215903397743032009-10-21T19:55:00.000+13:002009-10-21T19:55:23.772+13:00Ideas for assignment 2<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> <br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">Since I am frequently using <a href="http://www.webex.com/">Webex</a> as a participant, it think that it might be interesting for other people to get information on this excellent tool&nbsp; from the point of view of a meeting organiser. <br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I am waiting to hear from the former colleagues at the <a href="http://www.bcu.ac.uk/tee">Birmingham City University</a> to see if one of them would be able to take part in an online event during <br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">&nbsp;between 9th - 22nd November. The event will probably take place during an evening (NZ time) to be able to cater with the time difference with the UK. <br /></div><br /><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">I hope this works out, as I have close to no plan B at the moment.<br /></div><div style="font-size: 11pt; margin: 0in;">It would be nice to be able to use Webex for the event, but this is not a free tool.

Most blogs would allow to post replies. This frequently leads to exchange of ideas with readers which can themselves be bloggers. These bloggers are likely to have the same interests and would in turn cross reference with other blog, creating a network or community of blogs. A blog network can grow organically, or being actively weaved, as described by <a href="http://blog.wiserearth.org/how-to-weave-a-tighter-community/">Angus</a>.</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small; font-weight: bold;">An on-line discussion forum</span><span style="font-size: small;"> belongs to all participants. Participants are frequently screened to be registered to the community. They exchange ideas through a platform, and other members reply to the treads/questions</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">When investing the two formats, looking to the practical implementations of the two platforms, I arrived&nbsp; to some conclusions. In general,</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">-Blogs tends to convey ideas which are much more in depth than forum, probably because the feedback is not frequently as fast from other people </span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">-There is a tendency to have more intense discussions in forum.</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">-Sometimes&nbsp; loudest people take over&nbsp; a forum. This can lead its demise&nbsp; as the other participants get less interested into visiting the forum. This can be counteracted with effective moderation of the forum. </span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">My preconception about</span><span style="font-size: small; font-weight: bold;"> </span><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://www.twitter.com/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Twitter</span></a> is that it at first feels like a tool for people with short attention span. </span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">A reservation I have into to using it is that it would be an other source of information to have to cope with. I am at the moment spending up to 45 minutes&nbsp; at work&nbsp; every morning&nbsp; reading, filtering, deleting the information arrived overnight through emails, RSS,&nbsp; and update&nbsp; on web site such as blogs. On top of that count the "urgent" information requested&nbsp; from students via IM system, and you realise that the&nbsp; back ground eNoise is already quite high…</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">So what would Twitter bring me? Twitter is well described be Sarah Steward on the <a href="http://facilitatingonlinecommunities.blogspot.com/2009/09/getting-our-heads-around-blogs-forums.html">FC09 blog</a>.</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">There is not doubt that Twitter is probably be a good way of pushing information out towards other people. However, I feel that I could not effectively cope with an other source of information coming in, especially as I frequently could get it via other existing tools. I feel that it is much more efficient to gather information via limited set of tools such as RSS, eMail, and <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3362">Update Scanner</a>.&nbsp; In fact I have rationalised my information input replacing most RSS by U.Scanner. Updates. Update Scanner works in 99% of cases, when RSS is not always implemented on interesting sites.</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">Let's get back to Twitter. If the people I am trying to push information to via Twitter are in the same situation as me, can I expect them to collect information via this tool, or should I instead pass the information via existing tools? You know by now what solution I would prefer. I will however try to use Twitter in a course I will be delivering next year, and get the feed back from the students. I might get surprised!</span><br /></div>Hervéhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03827962727440592047noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5096423633327408543.post-18060374502859131852009-10-05T11:27:00.000+13:002009-10-05T11:34:22.680+13:00Looking for online community: Blog networks<span style="font-size: small;"></span> <br /><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">Wikipedia describe the blogosphere as being made up of all blogs and their interconnections and a collection of interconnected communities. But are blogs communities? </span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">A blog consist of one or sometimes several writer , passive readers&nbsp; and readers actively commenting.</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3257/3125507985_81ba79563b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3257/3125507985_81ba79563b.jpg" width="192" /></a><span style="font-size: small;">What can be a blogging network? I followed the link for Blogscope then BlogPulse. The idea to be able to search specifically for blogs about a certain topic is new to me. Does it mean that the blogs found concerned about the same topic constitute a community?</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">The first search was for eLearning. The two search engines are a good source to find blogs about a&nbsp; specific topic, but it did not meant that the blogs were interconnected together.&nbsp; It fact it did not seem to be many inter-connection between them at all.&nbsp; There are&nbsp; communities of blogs in <a href="http://nzblogosphere.blogspot.com/">Tumeke</a> (thanks <a href="http://rachele-learning.blogspot.com/2009/09/foc09-blogging-networks.html">Rache</a>l!) and<a href="http://www.kiwiblog.co.nz/"> KiwiBlogs</a> (thanks <a href="http://www.commonknowledge.net.nz/2009/09/searching-for-blogging-networks/">Stephen</a>!) These are concerned about NZ politics, but it does not seem to be much cross-references between these blogs either.</span><br /></div><br /><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">Organising blogs seems to be hard work as explained on <a href="http://blog.wiserearth.org/how-to-weave-a-tighter-community/">http://blog.wiserearth.org/how-to-weave-a-tighter-community/</a> (thanks Sarah!). The <a href="http://www.orgnet.com/BuildingNetworks.pdf">paper on which this blog entry was based</a> made for very interesting reading. </span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">Would someone complete such a task without financial incentive? I doubt it.</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;A good example of a blogging network would be the FCO9 blog network. Several platforms are used for the blogs, but there are linked by </span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">- a common interest</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">- links are interconnecting the blogs between each others </span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">- the blogs also refer to each other.</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;I have spent quite a bit of time looking for working blog communities.&nbsp; Like&nbsp; <a href="http://www.commonknowledge.net.nz/2009/09/searching-for-blogging-networks/">Stephen</a>, I have found that most are not very active in the sense that most members seem to be active only for a short time.</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">One of the two properly working blog network I have met is….. The FCO9 network. The other one was link to a course I completed last semester, so was only active for a few months.</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">Does anybody in the group want to be interviewed for comments and ideas on how you thing the blogging network&nbsp; could benefit from facilitation services?</span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">;-) <br /></span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;Can a blogging network benefit of a facilitation service? My gut feeling is this could only be happening if a synchronous event takes place. The only situation when I think facilitation services could be useful is when a group of bloggers is sharing a blog, with someone able to modify or withdraw entries if one is deemed to be unacceptable. I can imagine this happening in an educational context, but have not met any example of it yet.&nbsp; This idea was reinforced by reading <a href="http://kyleesappliedelearning.blogspot.com/2009/10/blogspheres.html">Kylee's blog entry</a> this morning.</span><br /><a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: small;"></span><br /></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0in;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">Graphic from :</span></i><br /><div about="http://www.flickr.com/photos/magia3e/3125507985/" xmlns:cc="http://creativecommons.org/ns#"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/magia3e/" rel="cc:attributionURL">http://www.flickr.com/photos/magia3e/</a> / <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.0/" rel="license">CC BY-NC 2.0</a></span></i><br /></div><i><span style="font-size: x-small;"></span></i><br /></div>Hervéhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03827962727440592047noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5096423633327408543.post-35741592597870635752009-10-05T11:15:00.000+13:002009-10-05T11:15:45.306+13:00On-Line forumI have questionned members of the long running&nbsp; Yahoo! group <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/UKFoster-Adopt/">UKFoster-Adopt · Fostering and Adoption in the UK</a>.<br />This is the summary of the information gathered from some of the members.<br />The discussions about any subject related to adoption and fostering are 'roaming fairly freely'.&nbsp; There is no point having someone trying to summarising a thread, as in any case, it would not close it. Too many people have to have the last word. <br />There is moderation taking place on the forum, as there are moderators who read every post after it is published, approve new members, deal with complaints and complete some 'admin stuff'. One of the moderators compared their role to light facilitation.<br />Sometimes moderators discuss off-line the behaviour of a member of the group giving concerns, and one of them steps in when things turn nasty.<br />It has happened in the past that members are put onto pre-moderation. In that situation, 'their posts must be read and approved before they are published but this is a rare event and has only happened a handful of times'. <br />There has been members banned for trying to sell children (!) or for breaking confidentiality agreement. <br />However the boundaries are&nbsp; very wide and the discussions can wanders right off the purpose of the group.<br />One of the members mentions that the discussions on the forum create a learning environment challenging the members ideas and preconceptions. The participants have respect for each other,&nbsp; challenge each other&nbsp; respectfully , as they are a group of individuals with a common interest and passion in fostering. There have been occasions where the group came together supported a peer needing help with a positive outcome . <br />Another&nbsp; good point was made by an someone else, who noted that 'with any group the dynamic of power and control more often is held by those who are charismatic, vocal and confident. It is dangerous to believe that freedom of opinion, low key monitoring and a lack of dissonance equates to agreement by the majority'.<br /><br />(thanks to Tia, Mike, Rhys, Kathy, Jon)<br /><br />This group feels like a real community. By in large the discussions are respectful&nbsp; and the participants cares for each other . All the participants seem to have a common interest.&nbsp; However there is no need for facilitation service as there are no plans for any synchronous events.Hervéhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03827962727440592047noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5096423633327408543.post-50149905987024536252009-09-30T14:48:00.000+13:002009-09-30T15:14:19.372+13:00Catching UpComing back to life after a spell into the "Works takes over everything" world.<br />It is far from a virtual world!<br />I am summarizing the findings about the forum I have been looking at: UKFoster-Adopt group, and will shortly post them.<br />I am at the same time listening to the recording of the session I have missed.

I have been listening to the recording of the online session. It is difficult to keep a sense of community when you have individual posting scattered on blogs.

However the technology which allows networks to function is a lot more common in 2009. However Stephen's view of sharing knowledge freely to anyone is idealistic and I cannot imagine a time when my employer would allow me to teach a course for free via eLearning.
